| Description | The study of History of Czech Philosophy in the period between World Wars shows, philosophers always felt necessary to comment on the forthcoming school reform. On one hand they understood the reform as an appeal to new reconsideration of Philosophy teaching; on the other hand they disagreed with the suggestions to eliminate the studies of classical languages. The importance of Latin and Greek for development of reasoning was emphasized by Arne Novák and by František Weyr, whilst Otakar Zich justified the importance of Greek in secondary education by esthetical arguments and by its importance for Philosophy. J. B. Kozák suggested an obligatory introduction to Latin and Greek terminology for university students, as well as the importance of the learning of foreign languages. |
